I've made quite a few changes to the preferences for my convenience. Now, I want to install it on several computers with the modified preferences.
It would be far easier if I can just copy the preferences/settings file(s) from the modified installation into the new installation folders instead of modifying the preferences of each new installation one by one.
Where am I to find the preferences/settings files of Geany?

The easiest way to find it is menu Tools → Configuration Files → snippets. conf. It will open a new tab. In the title bar there will be the path where geany.
The return to default configurations, just delete ~/. config/geany when Geany is not running. This will reset everything you have done inside your profile.
If Geany is inside your path, just call geany <file> . This should work on every platform, Geany is running.
If you are running Geany on Linux/BSD you will find them in folder ~/.config/geany
On very ancient versions of Geany there have been a ~/.geany folder.
As for deploying it on other computers: Keep care, as inside file geany.conf there are absolute paths defined, which are e.g. dependent on your username.
